Ways to induce labor

[gwensmama9206]

Thanks for all the ideas ladies

So far NOTHING is working to kick start this labor. Grrr. I went to the hospital on Wednesday because I was in A LOT of pain and the nurse said all these things I've been doing that are supposed to help kick start labor (walking, spicy chinese, bouncing, etc...) don't actually start labor. They just cause contractions and contractions don't equal labor (according to the nurse). The ONLY thing that can POSSIBLY help kick start labor at home is sex. Everything else just causes lots of pain. Ugh. Stupid.

And that's the LAST thing you want, Melissa!
Someone told me that scrubbing your kitchen floor on your hands and knees would do it too but I had the cleanest floors on the block and that didn't help at all!

I have no advice for you, I had a c-section. But I hope baby comes soon!
